Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a hydrophilized hollow fiber membrane by a continuous process using an extruder. According to the method of the present invention, thermal curing agent in the form of a monomer or a oligomer is added to a polymer solution, and in the melt state before a separation membrane is manufactured, thermal polymerization occurs due to an initial reaction of a thermal initiator at the appropriate temperature within a cylinder of the extruder. Thus, a hydrophilic component is evenly distributed into the membrane at the micro-level, and the hydrophilic component is not washed out, resulting in very high stability. Another advantage is high economic value and efficiency because the process for hydrophilizing the membrane as well as the process for manufacturing the membrane is carried out by the continuous process using the extruder without using conventional extrusion equipment in the form of an agitator.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a separator for a lithium ion secondary battery, a method for producing the same, and a secondary battery using the same. A separator structure includes a support disposed inside a secondary battery. The support includes a porous polymer matrix, cellulose nano fibers dispersed in the matrix, and inorganic additives dispersed in the matrix, wherein at least some of the inorganic additives are attached to the cellulose nano fibers and are distributed in the matrix.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hollow-fibre membrane having a novel structure and to a production method therefor. The hollow-fibre separation membrane of the present invention has an outermost shell surface pore size of between 0.001 and 0.05 μm and a mean pore size of between 0.01 and 0.1 μm while having, in sequence from the outermost shell surface, a dense sponge structure, a finger-like sponge structure and a mixed sponge-bead structure; and, because of this specific triple structure, the invention has outstanding mechanical strength, porosity and water permeability alike while also having a high performance whereby it is possible to eliminate even viruses.
